New bonnet, door handles and gauges.

[chrisBoid]

Picked up my car from Geff at http://www.reworx.com" TARGET="_new">RE:Worx last weekend after getting him to do a shed load of work: -

 
• Full service

 
• Fit RE-Amemiya AD9 bonnet

 
• Fit FEED door handles

 
• Fit DEFI oil and water gauges in centre speaker pod

 
• Fit DEFI boost gauge in steering column RE-Amemiya pod

 
• A load of other little things...

Anyway, big thumbs up for all the work he has done and putting up with me trying to project manage him :p

Also had my wheels laser aligned at STS in Bedford (01234 269800), thanks to AndyP for the heads up on those guys

Still need to fit the boost gauge as the pod didn\'t turned up in time and need to fit some bonnet pins (have ordered them); damn this bonnet is light!

So I finally gave it a good clean and took the much needed pictures, enjoy

The catch trays can be easily removed.

looking good there Chris

Can I ask how much ya full service was & what (if any) parts you had to get replaced?

I think you should get a tiny front reg plate do gonna have a lot of air being blocked by that thing. Only £8 ish inc p&p :-)

Jovic82 : it\'s a Knight Sports carbon look dash replacement, it came with the car on import so I have no idea on the price, apart form a ballpark guess of expensive!

Andyp : Don\'t have the paperwork on me so can\'t remember how much the service was, I had various belts, filters and lubricants replaced, plus the damn paper inlet manifold gasket which isn\'t a quick job (a full days work!).
Nothing serious though (thank the lord!)

Yep, I spent a while deciding on the number plate, in the end I plumped for the smallest font and spacing legally available, so I drew my own template from specs on the DVLA site and had it made up.  
You think this one is big, the one that came on the car was about double the size and nearly blocked the entire central air dam!  Rubbish!

Some kid hanging around STS mentioned your numberplate being tiny!

which one\'s the inlet manifold gasket? not the one attached to the trottle body is it? Did ya get a metal one put in?

hehe glad I chucked my reg plate. I just went for a motorbike one in the end, had been advised it is totally legal and a copper who was checking my car out didn\'t seem to care

Best thing is it fits right on the bracket motormall have put in and hadly blocks any air too. Know what ya mean about the ones they put on, they are terrible. I called mine a "goofy tooth" hehe

Correct Andy - not the one attached to the trottle body

The gasket in question would be the lower inlet manifold gasket - the gasket between the lower half of the inlet manifold and the four (for the 13B-REW) intake ports on the side housings/plates/ irons/what ever you want to call them...

Absolutely gorgeous !

bums that sounds hard to get at. Think mine would have been replaced during the rebuild but wanted to check see if it was metal.. sounds like a horror to get to? ;(
